Thank you from Poorpaws

Dear Val,

I am sure that, to my shame, I have not written to thank you for all the fabulous books. Looking through them all they are indeed an Aladdin’s cave of literature. Never ever have we been given so many books without having to chuck out half of them, you have obviously scrutinised them well !

Thank you again and if you ever find yourself in a similar library situation, you know where to come.

With love,

Sue

Val says we had a fabulous donation of good books and Sue from Poorpaws will put them to good use with their book sale that raises hundreds of euros for rehoming animals and cancer research.

Spread the word

TAGlines is for you to tell us, your friends and other interested readers about what's going on in the area; what is for sale or wanted; and the more readers we have the better the chance of getting the word out.

About Me

I have had a life with books. Moving from Middlesbrough to Manchester Public Library then Bolton, where I ran a Branch Library. My interest has always been children's and illustrated classic literature so when I started my bookselling career, this is what I decided to specialise in.I think my background in Libraries and the knowledge I gained there set me on the path to becoming a very successful bookseller and I gained first membership of the PBFA [Provincial Booksellers Assoc.] and then a couple of years later was admitted to the prestigious ABA [Antiquarian Booksellers Assoc.] Having the courage to exhibit at Book Fairs in the USA made a huge difference. We moved to France in 2001 and have never regretted that decision
